Observing media reports from recent years, Brad Pitt might seem like an irresponsible father, repeatedly putting his six children through emotional turmoil. His image was damaged by a notorious family argument on a private plane, which allegedly took place in 2016. Angelina Jolie testified that the actor supposedly attacked her and choked one of the children who was defending their mother.
The actor's parental situation is definitely not helped by the actions of his children, led by 18-year-old Shiloh's surname change and the harsh criticisms from adopted Pax, who publicly called out his father, accusing him of causing irreversible harm to the entire family. Amid unresolved financial issues and ongoing legal battles, the mother of the six children seems to be gaining the most from this situation.
Brad Pitt's parents may never see their grandchildren again
The long-standing conflict between the ex-spouses is being watched with concern by Brad's worried parents. 83-year-old William and 84-year-old Jane last appeared with their grandchildren at the premiere of the film "Unbroken," directed by their former daughter-in-law, in 2014. At that time, they praised Jolie, appreciating her dedication to family and her ability to balance motherhood with her film career.
Mr. and Mrs. Pitt only saw all six grandchildren during increasingly rare family gatherings over the next two years. According to a report published on the Daily Mail website by someone close to them, the complicated situation "breaks their hearts."
Brad Pitt's parents have not been able to see their beloved grandchildren for around eight years amid the ongoing divorce and legal battle between Brad and Angelina. Prior to the separation, they were a part of the kids’ lives and they all spent a lot of time together - a source relayed.
Jane and William are aware of the inevitably passing time, which plunges them further into despair.
They are in their 80s and to think that they would never be able to spend time with the kids again is just unbelievable - the source added.
